Which marathon shoe?

I am trying to decide between the Ronin 3's (7oz) and Brooks T7's (6oz)

I have run in the Ronin 3's for GA runs and pace runs also last weekends 20 with 5@mp. No issues to think of.

I use the Brooks T7's for LT workouts and recently did the HM race in them. I felt these shoes despite a bit lighter to be a bit softer on the landing and really worked well for me. The only issues is my quads for a few days after were quite sore.

I need to make a decision on which shoe to wear for Oct 15th Marathon. Both shoes will have over 80+ miles come race day so I'd like to order a fresh pair soon. (but which one)

This Saturday I have a 5k race I will wear the brooks but Sunday I have a 17 miler should I take the brooks out on this run and see how 17 miles feel during the run and how my legs are after?

Thanks for the feedback.

Are you leaning toward one or the other? Just on what you said, I might say the Ronin just because my quads are sore enough after a marathon without wearing shoes that I know maybe make them that way a little more. But I am no shoe expert. I only have 1 style I wear.

I'd go Ronins. That's what I'm wearing and you're a bit bigger than me. That pounding over 26.2 might take a toll on the legs that you could end up paying for in that last 1oK.
